Details
If you make the viewer narrower than the test case below and scroll it
horizontally, the background color is missing.
<html>
<head>
<STYLE>
BODY { background-color: orange; }
</STYLE>
</head>
<body>
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
</body>
</html>

since the text renders, but the background does not and the layout code renders
*both*, i'm beginning to believe that somehow this is a problem in layout.

No one is going to be too thrilled about this, but that's the way it's supposed
to work with CSS2.
The reason is that the computed 'width' is determined by the display width of
the window as computed top-down. Depending on the overflow policy, the content
that doesn't fit is either hidden, scrolled, or visible sticking outside its
parent's box.
However, the background is only displayed inside of the parent's box and hence
doesn't include the content that extends beyond the parent's box
This rule also applies to a background specified on the BODY element
